[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an 11-year-old, almost 12, and she's been a little more prickly recently. Nothing major, but my usually talkative girl has started giving me curt, one-word answers and her dad and [b]I now seem to embarrass her just by breathing and being alive[/b]. It's a little sad really because I feel a bit rejected by her, but I'm hoping it won't last forever. Am I in for an emotional rollercoaster ride? Are the middle school years more challenging than high school years? Or is the difficulty of the teen years over-hyped? [/quote] And you don't ever remember feeling this way about your own parents, OP? Of course it's normal. It's called growing up.[/quote]
